I have been riding for 3 years, started on my electric Kuberg and after maxing that out at Ashdown intermediate track, I went onto a stomp 110 but it didn’t last long as wanted a KTM. In 2022 I started competing with Ringwood MXC I didn’t get enough races in to qualify for end of season trophy sadly.

I’m learning to play the Saxophone which is cool, I like karting at Thruxton Race track and mountain biking, I have done some challenging tracks in Wales which I really enjoyed
